Are Ouija boards gateways to the afterlife? Or a silly kids' game?

Seeing how "Ouija" came in at number one last weekend at the box office, and with halloween around the corner, I have to ask...do you think Ouija board games are gateways to the spirit world that could bring on unforeseen terrors that could ruin your life by some paranormal activity? Or do you think it's nothing more than childish nonsense fueled by some gimmicky kids' game?

And if you fall into that latter of what I just said, then would YOU personally be willing to play a game of "Ouija" just to prove it's a fake?
